Privacy Policy

We at 3235106 Nova Scotia Limited recognize the importance of privacy and the sensitivity of personal information. Like most businesses, we have an obligation to keep confidential all information by which you or other individuals can be identified. We are committed to protecting any personal information we receive. This privacy policy outlines how we manage personal information and safeguard privacy.

Your privacy rights

Effective January 1, 2004, almost every Canadian business engaged in commercial activities was required to comply with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act. That Act gives rights concerning the privacy of personal information.

We are responsible for the personal information we collect and hold. To ensure this, we have developed this policy, and trained our representatives about our privacy policies and practices.

Why do we collect personal information?

We are interested in refining, developing and perfecting the software used in connection with Tether. In order to do this, we need to be able to access information about its users. We will use some or all of that information to tailor our software to enhance our users experience.

What personal information do we collect?

Personal information is any information that identifies you or by which your identity could be deduced. The personal information we require will include some or all of the following:

Name, address, telephone number, service provider, and related billing information. Since your payment is processed through PayPal, your personal billing details are maintained by PayPal. We will also obtain your smartphone device ID and/or phone number as the unique identifier for your smartphone to provide our service for that device.

To deliver the Tether service we:

May, depending on software version and device, divert your data through our proxy servers and may store the following Usage Information:

the URL destination of the data,

the time and date when the connections were opened and closed,

what protocol was used

your unique device identifier

Do not alter, view or store that data

Do count data packets and the size of those packets, which is information we keep to optimize service performance and so that usage data can be provided to the user

Never share your data or Usage Information with anyone else

Usage Information, as described above, is only stored for 90 days and is then deleted from our systems.

How do we collect personal information?

We collect information directly from you via the internet, email, phone, in person or by other means identified to you.

Use of information

We use the personal information collected to:

refine and develop our software;

develop marketing material based on aggregate data; and

help us learn about our potential client base and service usage;

Disclosure of personal information

We do not disclose personal information to any third parties to enable them to market their products and services.

We will disclose personal information and usage information when:

required or authorized by law to do so;

requested to do so by a government agency or authority;

you have consented to the disclosure;

we engage third parties to provide administrative services for us, such as computer back-up services or archival file storage; and

the information is already publicly known.

Retention of the personal information

We will keep records (all stored information other than Usage Information) for up to 2 years after the service is terminated. This assures us ample time with which to use the information for the purposes of software development and purposes as described above.

Is the personal information secure?

We will employ all reasonable safeguards to ensure that the personal information is kept safe from loss, unauthorized access, modification or disclosure. Among the steps taken to protect the information are:
